Leggo my Eggo! Bryce Harper showers seven times a day

Leggo my eggo! Bryce Harper may have a new mantra this season. "That's a clown question, bro," may be a slogan of the past. Harper, the Washington Nationals phenom, appeared on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" last

Harper, the Washington Nationals phenom, appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Tuesday night and revealed some of his superstitions before a game.

In short: Wade Boggs had his chicken; Harper has his shower gel and shampoo.

"When I was growing up I was really superstitious," Harper said. "I still am. I get to the field at 12 o'clock for a 7:05 game, and it starts from there. I shower seven times while I'm at the field and I don't even need to. Yeah, it's bad.

"As long as I'm doing good or my team's winning, I'm gonna keep doing the same thing. Wearing the same undershirt, I mean, I eat Eggo waffles. It has to be Eggo before the game. I mean, it's really weird. PB and honey, I mean, I'm really superstitious."

Talk about endorsement opportunities.

Harper, who won the award for National League rookie of the year, may be just 20 years old, but he was smooth and polished in his late-night TV debut – full mohawk and all.
